Mom birthday, dinner and started decorations last week

Mom turned 104 November 23rd.  We celebrated at a restaurant with her wanting pizza. 

Still beats me at checkers and loves to play scrabble.   Her jumble word find books are a favorite also. 

Looking good and we are all so blessed to have her.  God has blessed all of us but especially with Mom still able to get around with walker.  

Bingo is fun for her too. 

Two days later at the place Mom stays put on a wonderful Thanksgiving feast. 

Turkey and all the trimmings.  




Green beans just the way I like them.  Little bacon flavor, vinegar, onions.  


My tree in living room is up.  I  am slow this year as my knee bothers me more now and am scheduled for a TKR in January.   Never thought I would say I look forward to it.  It will be robotic assist. Smaller incision, more perfect placement and will come home same day, well that is if everything else looks good.

I will have some type of bicycle brought to home with a screen that monitors my movement on it and will adjust to give me the right stride and work out.  This is new and looks like just the thing for exercising the joint. 

Living room tree.




Wreaths hung in windows.  All 10

I will be adding more decoration updates on my Christmas blog.
I still have shopping to do. 

More later

    1. Thank you. She is happy with al of us around. I am glad you like my tree; I throw everything but the kitchen sink on it. I say I am going to decorate it with a certain theme and color every year but always end up doing the same decorations as always.
